Metalcore?

Even though I do not believe Slipknot fall under the metalcore genre AT ALL, this song sounds more like metalcore than anything else. James25402 14:56, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You'd be suprised, i was chekin out the inrenet and some website considered them as a Metalcore/Nu Metal band. As far as im conserned Before I Forget is the only metalcore songs Slipknot have ever done. Goom 20:18, 21st June 2007 (UTC)

yeh n you could also have me inside, purity and wait n bleed as metalcore songs

i think metalcore is more eralivent then nu metal Rakarno.

Even though someone wrote "do not change the genre to metalcore", why the hell not? There are no citations ANYWHERE that describe the genre of this song on its own, any genre we put in the box for it is going to be based on POV. Just because Slipknot play alt. metal/nu-metal does not mean it is any more reliable to label THIS song as those genres. The consensus on this Talk page has said metalcore, so unless some people come here to complain about and disagree, it will stay metalcore. James25402 (talk) 22:22, 23 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Who keeps changing metalcore to "metal", alternative metal, or even... nu metal? Whoever it is, LEAVE IT ON METALCORE. 61x62x61 (talk) 22:29, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Would

New Wave of American Heavy Metal be a good enough replacement, as it is strongly influenced by metalcore? π₰Å₯ ĬLʡ $Φǚɭ ђµπt₴ŗ ₯Å₰π 22:25, 2 June 2008 (UTC)[reply

PEOPLE STOP CHANGING IT FROM METALCORE! 99.224.169.91 (talk) 14:03, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yep. People are STILL changing it to "metal", alternative metal, or even... nu metal. Whoever it is, JUST STOP. --↑ɻ⅞θʉɭђɥл₮₴Ṝ 19:19, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Adding other genres is fine, but just DON'T REMOVE METALCORE!!! --61x62x61 ([[User

i fully support the spirit of what you guys are doing.its exactly the kind of thinking wikipedia needs. but this song isnt metalcore. its doesnt have many pronounced hardcore elements. the song is much closer to nu metal. then again, these genres are easily confused because of their rhythmic metal nature.

I'm sorta leaned more towards alt-metal and nu metal (mostly the latter, really), though it does lean a bit towards metalcore. Not a lot, in my opinion, but it still has a bit of metalcore influence. Really, I'm inclined towards nu metal, but that's just my two cents on the subject. 121.219.40.20 (talk) 12:03, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thematically, the song deals with a nihilistic conception of man

Seriously, this smacks of pretense. I think that the entire second paragraph should either have major changes or be scrapped entirely. The references to Darwinism and Machiavelliism are stretches at best, and really don't belong here. 69.19.14.37 (talk) 06:09, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Not to mention that "materialism circumstances" isn't an English phrase. I'm just going to remove the whole paragraph, if someone wants put it back in they should find some sources that back up that interpretation. Kravitch (talk) 19:36, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Saying that the whole paragraph there now sounds like a four year old wrote it! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.152.116.67 (talk) 07:46, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Carve

That was part of the Crowz album, was it not? The article, by including that reference, seems a bit like a cover-up for Crowz...would it be better to reword? Thanks,

Metalcore...

Another thing, the tasks list says add metalcore to the infobox, if we are going to, do we have any sources? Thanks,

Why do we need to? In fact, who added that as a task? Leave it as it is. The article's probably been sabotaged enough already without someone calling it 'metalcore'. --Lordnecronus (talk) 18:51, 2 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, fair enough, it is a slight argument magnet, I'll agree. Thanks,

this song can't be nu metal

Really it has no hip hop or grunge in it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheMetallican (talk • contribs) 01:13, 3 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, it does. It's got record scratches and a hip-hop rhythm. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.219.236.163 (talk) 06:58, 22 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nu metal?

Rateyourmusic.com is NOT a reliable source. Besides, if you look up Mudvayne's genre on there, it will say "Nu metal". But yet, there is a consensus against that label for Mudvayne, besides it's on the edit page for Mudvayne on wikipedia. I'm taking it off for now, when a source comes, it can be there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.255.214.78 (talk) 22:24, 4 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please direct me to a discussion where RYM is listed as not a reliable source. Note: just because the editors of Mudvayne have a consensus against it, that doesn't affect our decisions here on the Slipknot pages. –

You can't put a
Falling Away From Me" by Korn or something. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.255.214.78 (talk) 23:45, 6 July 2012 (UTC)[reply
